While I'm not the biggest fan of Will Smith, I sat down to watch Seven Pounds this evening. Truth is, I just wanted to see letterpress in action on 'the big screen'. Boy was it ever a let down when Rosario Dawson's character laid a blank sheet of paper into an uninked press and after one pass resulted in a multi-coloured image. Talk about an inaccurate description of letterpress printing. There are just some short-cuts that should never be made.
